So ya does anyone else have those spider web like lines on there front bumper? It almost looks like the factory paint didnt have enough flex in it. Well silly question, but is there anyway to get those out without repainting?...

nope cant fix it without repainting, but thats a problem usually associated with: A) if you hit something with the front bumper making it bend more than it usually does or B) painted fiberglass.

its easy to repaint

just sand it all off

make sure that you take the bumper off

sand it super smooth

clean it with alchohol (not beer or captain morgan)

rent a paint sprayer

buy your own paint (cheaper)

get primer

once primed let dry

sand that

then paint.

then clear coat

then polish

and wax

Ya I asked a question for a reasonable answer, now the cost to get a garage will outweigh to just have it painted. Now Im sorry if you are upset at what I said, but that was no reason to Private message me to call me a bitch. Very childish and quite uncalled for.
